Recently, Finetool Saudi Arabia Company Limited of Jeddah selected
Versaflex HC for the resealing septum in its insert-molded IV bottle cap.
By choosing Versaflex HC over vulcanized rubber materials, Finetool
improved the resealing performance of the septum and was able to cut
down on processing steps for significant system cost reductions.
Apart from manufacturing optimization, Versaflex HC helped Finetool
to avoid coring—the tendency for a material to produce tiny fragments
when penetrated by a needle—with 6mm IV infusion spikes and needles
16 gauge and smaller, even after multiple uses.
